Answer: Hi Windy and Dennis! Unfortunately, I can't name your siding brand offhand, but I have some ideas for how you can find out. First, try removing a piece of siding and taking it to siding dealers in your area. They are experts at identifying siding, and they will probably be able to tell you the brand based on the detailed information you have. If this fails, you can try an online siding matching service. You mail in a piece of your siding to the service, along with any other information you have, and they'll do the detective work for you -- figuring out what the siding is and then finding as much as you need for your repair job. Do you know how to remove a piece of siding? You need a siding unlocking tool, which you can purchase at any hardware store. You'll start at the bottom corner of the piece above the piece you want to remove, using the siding unlocking tool to free the bottom edge from its connection to the piece below it. Once you've got the piece detached from the one above it, you'll find a nailing strip. Remove the nails from the siding piece, and take the piece down.
